Why is it called "key" lime pie?!


Question:

Why is it called "key" lime pie?

I was wondering why the "key" was in front of the lime pie part because it is lime pie......


Answers:

Key limes are smaller than regular lime and have a very tart distinctive taste. They are only grown in the Florida keys. It' not real key lime pie without key limes from the Florida keys.
